“Ah, and sure as the sun rises in the east, today the first purse-meme thang appeared on my Facebook wall. One of my friends “likes it in the car.” Nothing like imagining your middle-aged friends doing it to start the day off right! More purse locations will be coming, I’m sure, as October grinds on. Purses on the floor, on the table, on a chair. Inside a basket. Hanging on a hook. Oh, ha ha. Ha ha. Ha. And this helps cancer patients how??? Hey, I’ve got an idea for a game. How about all you coy, adorable gals pry yourselves away from your computers, grab your purses and plunk them down on the floor next to a friend who is suffering from cancer. Then you take her hand, and you tell her that you love her, and you’re going to be there for her no matter what comes. Then you ask her how you can help. I know this game won’t be as much fun as the bra and purse online frolics. But since when is a disfiguring, often fatal disease supposed to be a source of fun for others? I must have missed the memo.”
